WHERE EASY BECOMES IMPOSSIBLE AND DIFFICULT BECOMES ENJOYABLE
When you
are guilty it's always easier to lie than tell then truth, but the end result
will become an impossible life of deception. It's easier to hate than to forgive
but unforgiveness will lead to an impossible life of bitterness. It's easier to
lust than look the other way, but looking will lead to an impossible life of
infidelity and perversion. It's easier to cheat but it will lead to an
impossible life of distrust.
The human being always sees himself in
others. If you lie then you see others as liars, making it impossible for you to
fully believe anyone. If you hate, then you believe everyone has some reason to
hate and you intentionally or unintentionally try to stir it up in them, making
a life of peace impossible. This life taken to it's limit is the cornerstone of
a riot or a lynch mob. If you lust, you think everyone does so you will
misinterpret their words and actions because to the defiled and corrupt and
unbelieving nothing is pure; their very minds and consciences are defiled and
polluted." Titus 1:15 (AMP) If you have a defiled mind, it makes a spiritual
relationship or spiritual marriage impossible. If you cheat you see everyone as
a cheater and find it impossible to establish a trusting relationship.
However it's much more difficult to tell the truth when it's going to
cost you. It can cost you money, a relationship, a job, your material goods, and
even your life, but in the end truth always wins out. Truth can always look a
lie in the eye and not flinch, while maintaining perfect peace. It is so
difficult to forgive some things, but forgiveness has a quadruple blessing. 1.
Your body avoids many disease, and sicknesses. 2. It frees your mind up to focus
on your purpose, 3. It allows Me to forgive you of your sins, thus you avoid
hell. 4. Last but not least the one you forgive, receives greater guilt because
your act of love, frustrates the offender.
It may be difficult to refrain
from viewing sensuality, and nudity, because when a "man or woman is tempted,
they are drawn away of their own lust, and enticed. [15] Then when lust hath
conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth
death." James 1:14-15 (KJV) Refraining on the other hand, gives you the great
advantage of purity power. This is a power rarely spoken of because it's effects
are only felt by the impure. The pure and innocent automatically are sharper,
livelier, and much more confident because of the absence of impurity in the
soul. Their holy confidence makes them an automatic leader of those battling
guilt resulting from lust. Refusing to look gives you an awesome advantage,
because "To the pure in heart and conscience all things are pure" ... Titus 1:15
(AMP)
If you refuse to cheat, and ... "take thought for what is honest
and proper and noble aiming to be above reproach in the sight of everyone."
Romans 12:17 (AMP) your testimony will have great power, because of the respect
you gain. Eventually you will gain favor with man as will as Me. Even satan
testified to Me ... "thou hast blessed the work of Job's hands, and his
substance is increased in the land." Job 1:10 (KJV) It may be difficult for a
moment but so enjoyable at the end.
Listen as a good soldier "take your
share of the hardships and suffering which you are called to endure as a good
(first-class) soldier of Christ Jesus." 2 Timothy 2:3 (AMP) because ... "My
favor is for a lifetime or in My favor is life. Weeping may endure for a night,
but joy comes in the morning." Psalm 30:5 (AMP)
